WOYWW 230 - chaos everywhere

Hi to all the peekers and deskhoppers all around the globe.
It's this time again when you have the best of all excuses (if you feel you need one :-)) to snoop around other people's desks and the things they're up to. Among other things the foreign desks are a great source of inspiration from very talented people. Julia Dunnit is the generous host who pulls all the strings on her blog 'Stamping Ground'.
Today it's chaos again, as way too often recently. The children have Autumn holidays and are at home, so very little time for crafting.
I tried to make a card on commission - have been asked to make something with flowers. I had such a hard time ... I don't own many flowers and very rarely use them. So I made a variety to choose from.
It's for a coworker who's going to retire (gelli plate prints, sprayed backgrounds various stamps, a bit of stencilling with modeling paste, and I found a long forgotten inchie which I added to one of the cards).
Then: stamps, coffee, ink pads, bits and bobs, chaos, bits I tested different things on. On the left you can see some pieces I'm planning to make ATCs with and on top of the little pile an attempt to make a playing card, you can see the finished ones in this blog post.
On the upper left corner in the first pic you can spot a card I made with new stamps I got :-)
Thank you so mmuch for visiting and having a look at my 'desk'.
Please bear with me when I'll only be able to comment later today, I promised the children to visit the museum of art  ...

Hugs, Suzanne xxx

    Ah Suzanne, I know the pain of making a card for commission...I always spend far too long, and make more than three 'just in case' and it's suddenly stressful! But having said that... I love what you've made, I hope your commissionee will too!
